ESET Cyber Security Pro (for Mac) & OSX 10.10.2 (14C1514)?

[m4v3r1ck 113]

Hey all,

 

It's been almost 6 months ago when ESET released v 6.0.14. Is there any news on a new mayor release update that will have adressed al known issues. And how about the reviews and performance of tis current version 6.0.14 in OSX 10.10.2 (14C1514)?

 

Just curious.....

 

TIA & Cheers

Someone from ESET can respond about the release date for the next build, but I can answer regarding how the current build is with 10.10.2. There has been a lot of module updates since the release and along with OS X updates for Yosemite, having both Cyber Security Pro and OS X up to date is quite bearable now.

 

As of April 2014 (with OS X 10.10.2 and ECSP 6.0.14.0 all up to date), the two major issues you could experience until the next build is:

• esets_proxy will crash or freeze and not be able to restart, meaning Web Protection, Anti-Phishing and Parental Controls do not work and leaves you slightly unprotected.
• Shutdown is delayed due to a bug.

Otherwise, you shouldn't experience any other major issues... there are a few more in the pinned topic (also shown in my forum signature) which is constantly updated regarding this. Going into the update settings and selecting pre-release updates can also help with this current build.

 

Most issues are fixed and resolved in the recent release of ESET Endpoint Security for OS X (6.0.24.0) this year which hopefully means that they will also provide these fixes to ESET Cyber Security and Cyber Security Pro in the next build.

Hello,

 

the service release is planned for the end of Q2 of 2015, but no promises everything depends on development, localization and testing resources.

 

Regards,

, the new release for ECS and ECSP is here and is version 6.1.12.0, which already supports OS X El Capitan as well. This version has the Shutdown issue fixed, and the unprotected issue is also fixed, along with many other improvements I mentioned earlier in this topic.
